ring sling with overlapping pleat shoulder

CheckoutToday's message: I will be closing the store starting on the morning of Wednesday, Nov. 25, since I won't be sewing or shipping over the US Thanksgiving weekend (25th-29th) as we will be visiting with family. Please plan accordingly and order earlier, or be prepared to wait a few days to order, if you will need a sling around those times. (Closing the store basically means I will be marking all the fabrics as "out of stock" -- they won't actually be out of stock, but I don't wish to take orders duing that time because I hate having a backlog. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.)

If you're looking at a product and can't see any swatches, click on the color selector for that product, pull down until you see the color you're interested in, and then let go of the mouse button. The photo at left will change to reflect the chosen color. If this doesn't work on your browser, please send me an email and let me know.

Quick information:

Please read the sling construction page before ordering -- it covers the important details of how your sling will be sewn.

Have a sling whose fabric you love, but whose shoulder isn't for you, or a short wrap you want to turn into a ring sling?

Six sling sizes are available. Please check your size before ordering!

See pocket and accessories for pockets and other useful additions to your sling, and tail accents to add some color to the tail of your sling.

Welcome!

As seen in the Jan/Feb 2007 issue of Mothering Magazine (one of the favorite slings!)

Cloth baby carriers are just about the most useful baby gadget on the planet. While they may be seen as a new invention in the United States, where strollers have long been the norm, practically every culture on the planet has a version, and they've been used for thousands of years. Ring slings are a relatively recent innovation, dating to 1980, but their ease of use and versitility have quickly made them a staple for parents in the know. [more on babywearing]

Why choose SBP over an Etsy or eBay sling? I started by writing just a few reasons, but the list was getting so long, I had to put it on its own page!

Just arrived:

Many new tail accents (now with their own category) -- select by designer!
